  1. Congrats on quitting @TOMMY S You didn't mention how long ago you quit. I suspect it's been recently? We are all different in terms of how our brains react to not only the loss we might feel after quitting but also the chaos ccreated in our minds in the early time of our quit. Our whole life is turned upside down and that can produce all kinds of different emotional reactions. This could just be the way your mind is reacting to these early days/weeks of quitting. We all experience different symptoms, some common and others not so common. I would stronly encourage you to hang in there for the short term. I believe your feeling is onlt temporary if it is connected to your quit. Get active; exercise, even walking can be a great activity after quitting. Keep busy and distracted from your normal routine so your mind is focused on something positive. Think hard about the positive things you're seeing as your quit progresses. And stick around here with others who've quit as well. We all understand what you're going through and we've all managed to beat this addiction and are very happy we made the effort - it's never easy for any of us!

  4. Congrats on deciding to quit @Gattu Joshi! Is it worth it? ABSOLUTELY !! Once you get through the early stages of quitting, you'll realize all the benefits ... better health, more money in your pockets, and best of all ... Freedom from your slavery to nicotine. That freedom is the best benefit of all because you're no longer dictated to by when you need a smoke! The feelings you're experiencing right now only last for a short time and you'll be back to your normal self before you know it. Quitting's not easy but it IS so worth it!
  5. Congrats @Jane!! As I recall, that early quit time is like a rollercoaster; up one day down the next & so on. Ya just gotta ride it out and trust me ... It'll be well worth the effort to fight through those days. Stay focused on the positive changes (like your 200 pounds savings) because looking at the positive gives youwill power to keep at it.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
